Rowdyruff Return
Hey guys. I've really gotten into the Rowdyruff boys from PPG lately. I wish they would have been in more episodes because they're like the coolest characters in the whole series. So, I decided to make this fanfic in order the explain the situtation of what they've been doing the past time. Note, this fanfic will have minor elements from the 2016 series like them going to a new school and Smartphones. This will still mainly be based on the first series. Also, I do plan on doing a prequel story for this on how the RRB became good, but I want to focus on this story for now. Hope you guys enjoy it.
The city of Townsville, and it's a peaceful day. Everyone is enjoying their time of relaxing and with the Powerpuff Girls defending the city, they have nothing at all to fear. The girls were flying doing their daily fly by around the city. Everything seemed to be in order.
"Looks like everything's okay, today." Blossom said.
"Great, another day with no fighting." Buttercup said depressed.
"It has been pretty steadly these past days." Bubbles said. "Wonder why?"
"Maybe some of the bad guys finally decided to give up." Buttercup said.
"Well, if they did, that would be a good thing." Blossom said. "We don't always have to fight if no one's causing trouble."
"I know, but sometimes I just crave a really good fight, you know?" Buttercup said.
"Better watch those words, Buttercup." Blossom said. "Remember the Rowdyruff Boys?"
"Oh, yeah. Those guys." Bubbles said. "They were the strongest opponents we've ever faced. And we've never really beaten them, well besides kissing them...hehehe."
"Uh, don't remind me." Buttercup said. "They were pretty tough. Actually, now that you've mention it... we haven't seen those dorks in months.
"Yeah, you're right." Blossom said. "I wonder what they've been even doing all this time? I don't think they've caused any trouble for quite some time."
"Heh, you sound like you miss them." Buttercup said. "Maybe, Brick perhaps?"
"Ohhhh...heheheh..." Bubbles giggled.
"What!?" Blossom said in shock. "N-no! I don't miss that jerk, but I do admire his leader skills.
"Oooooooohhhhhhhhh!" Both Bubbles and Buttercup said.
"S-shut up!" Blossom shouted with red on her face. "You know I didn't mean it like that! I just think if was a good guy, he'd be a good leader...with cool hair..."
"Blossom likes Brick!" Both Bubbles and Buttercup sang as they teased Blossom.
"Oh, and what about you, two?" Blossom stated. "Bubbles, you said that you thought Boomer was cute."
"I...well..it was a stur of the motion!" Bubbles said embrassed. "But, he is cute. No doubt about that."
"And what about Butch, Buttercup?" Blossom said.
"What about him?" Buttercup said.
"You think I don't notice?" Blossom said. "You didn't fool us when you first kissed him."
"Yeah, you had no problems doing it the next time." Bubbles said.
"I..I.. just wasn't so against it the second time..." Buttercup said with a red face.
"Sure you were." Blossom said with a smirk.
"Grrrr...okay, so I kinda did like kissing Butch the first time, so what?" Buttercup said. "You guys are no different than me!"
"I...guess you're right about that." Blossom said in agreement.
"It's too bad those guys aren't in the same side as us." Bubbles said. "Then we could all fight crime together.
"Yeah, that would be nice, would it?" Blossom said. "With their strength and ours, we'd be an unstoppable team."
"Too bad that may not happen." Buttercup said. "We're all on two different sides. I don't think that will change."
"Yeah, I guess you're right." Blossom said.
"It's too bad." Bubbles said. "It'd be great to have someone help us with all this crime fighthing."
The girls were just about finished with their rounds and decided to head home, but just then, all of the sudden, a giant monster showed up and attacked the city.
"Oh, no!" Blossom said. "A monster is attacking the city!"
"All right!" Buttercup said in excitement "Finally. Some action!"
"Let's roll, girls!" Blossom said.
The girls fly to the monster that was destroying the city.
"Hey, obviously you don't know who defends this city!" Blossom said to the monster.
"Yeah, it's us!" Bubbles said. "We're the Powerpuff girls!"
"And if you haven't heard of us, you're about to!" Buttercup said to the monster.
Buttercup flies in for an attack, but the monster swipes her away before she could even strike.
"Buttercup!" Both Blossom and Bubbles shouted.
Blossom and Bubbles got angry and try to attack the monster too, however he countered on the other girls as well.
"Uh... this monster is tougher than he looks..." Blossom said injured.
"But we can't back down now." Buttercup said.
Buttercup used her laser beam on the monster, but it didn't seemed effective. The other girls then joined in to help, but it was still no good. The monster then smack the girls down the ground. The girls then got up once again and try to to use everything they have, but it was still not enough to even left a scratch. The monster then started to become more violent and attacks the girls again. The girls become very injured and are barely able to fight.
"Uh, remember when I said I wanted a good fight...?" Buttercup said injured. "I take it all back..."
"What do we do, Blossom?" Bubbles said sadly.
"I don't know..." Blossom said nervously. "I don't think we ever faced something like this."
"But...we have to keep fighting..." Buttercup said slowly.
"If we don't, who will...?" Bubbles said weakly.
The monster was about to finish off the girls, but as he was going to stomp on them, a sudden flash came in and hit the monster.
"Uh, what was..." Blossom said.
The girls looked to see what it was that hurt the monster, and to their surprised it was three boys that they haven't seen in a long time. It was none other then the Rowdyruff Boys, Brick, Boomer, and Butch.
"Hey, girls!" Brick said with a smile. "Long time no see."
"The Rowdyruff Boys?!" The girls said in shocked.
"Looks like you ladies could use some help." Brick said.
"Don't worry." Boomer said. "We'll take care of this guy!"
"You girls just relax while we take care of things here!" Butch said ready to fight.
"Let's go, boys!" Brick said.
The Boys were ready to fight the monster as they flew close to it. Boomer and Butch distracts the monster while Brick uses his fire breath. The monster didn't seem to like it and try to shoo the boys away. They were able to dodge the attack, but the monster had strike a piece of a building and was about to fall on some people.
"Uh, oh." Brick said worried. "Guys, quick! Get those people to safely."
"On it!" Both Boomer and Butch said.
Boomer and Butch moved some of the people that were in danger to safely, but Brick tries to stop the piece of the building from falling. He was able to catch it and had saved some of the people that were in it. He then layed it to the floor gently and safely exscorted them.
"Whew, that would have ended badly." Brick said.
"Okay, Brick." Boomer said. "We made sure everyone is safe."
"Now, how about we wrap things up, here?" Butch said.
"Sounds good to me, bros." Brick said. "Let's do it!"
The boys were now focused on finishing the monster, but while they were fighting, the girls became confused on the situtation with the boys.
"Are...the Rowdyruffs...fighting for us...?" Blossom said confused.
"They helped saved those people..." Bubbles said confused.
"Is this real or some sort of trick?" Buttercup said confused.
"I just don't know, but they are helping us, that's for sure." Blossom said.
The boys started to give the monster a run for his money as they began to put multiple hits on him. Their attacks seemed to be more effective then the girls were.
"Okay, boys!" Brick said. "Let's finish this!"
The boys then came together and used a triple uppercut which was strong enough to knock the monster clear out of townsville. They were victorious, and some of the people even cheered for them. The girls were still shocked and confused.
"Awesome work, bros!" Brick said happy.
"We knock that monster straight outta the city!" Butch said.
"Yeah, and we look good doing it!" Boomer said.
The guys then looked at the girls.
"Hey, we better go check on them." Brick said.
"Yeah, they're gonna want an explaination about this." Butch said.
"Can't say we didn't see this coming." Boomer said.
The boys then flew down to talk the girls.
"You girls okay?" Brick questioned.
"...Yeah..we're fine..." Blossom said confused.
"That's good." Brick said. "It looked like that monster really did a number on you all."
"It's a good thing we showed up just in time." Boomer said.
"Otherwise you might be...you know." Butch said.
"...So why did you guys help us? Blossom said.
"Yeah!" Buttercup said. "You guys are supposed to be bad!"
"Not anymore we're not." Butch said.
"Believe it or not, we gave that up a while ago." Boomer said.
"You did?" Bubbles said.
"Yeah." Brick said. "Why you think we haven't done anything for a long time?"
"That's true." Blossom said. "But why now?"
"Let's just say we were out of town for a bit." Brick said. "We had to do...a lot of thinking."
"We only came back here a few weeks ago and decide to help out." Butch said. "Why you think crime has been so slow these past days?"
"That's because of you, guys!?" The girls said surprised.
"Yep." Brick said. We were always on lookout for a bit, so we took care of things pretty quickly. Didn't want to draw too much attention."
"Of course, we might have been a little off today." Boomer said.
"Well, I guess we should thank you for your help." Blossom said. "But, you still haven't explained why did you decide to be good."
"We'll tell you everything you need you know, but why don't we clean up things here first." Brick said as he pointed around Townsville. "That's monster really wrecked the place."
"Oh..., hehehe, right..." Blossom said in agreement.
With all 6 of them working together, the town was fixed in no time. The girls decide to bring the boys to their house, but it would be pretty hard to explain to the professor why the Rowdyruffs are with them.
"Okay, we're here." Blossom said. "We're should probably tell the Professor about you guys."
"The Professor, uh, he's kinda your dad, right?" Brick questioned. "Is he one of those forgiving types?"
"Sometimes, but I don't think it would be easy for the guys that's almost killed his girls." Blossom said.
"Sorry about that..." The boys all said nervously.
"Don't tell us..." Buttercup said. "Tell him."
The girls knock on the door as they wait for the professor to open it. The boys looked a little nervous, but they to explain things. A few seconds later, the Professor opens the door.
"Oh, hello girls." The Professor said.
"Hi, professor." The girls said.
"We...have some guests with us..." Blossom said nervously.
"Oh, well I'm sure they'll be fineeeeee..." The Professor said shocked. "The Rowdyruff Boys!?"
"Uh...hi, Professor...?" The boys said nervously.
"Girls, stay back!" The Professor said as he tried to keep the boys away. "These boys are dangerous!"
"No, Professor!" Blossom said. "It's okay. They're not like that anymore...we hope."
"They actually helped us fight away a monster that was attacking the city." Bubbles said.
"They even helped us clean up." Buttercup said.
"...Is that true?" The professor said with a stur face.
"It's true." Brick said as he takes off his hat. "Mr. Professor, sir? I want to be the first to apologize about what we did to the girls in the past."
"We did a lot of things that we weren't proud of." Boomer said.
"We were big jerks." Butch said. "But we're changed now..."
"And if you give us the chance to explain everything, we can show you that we're good now." Brick said.
"Hmm..." The Professor said with a stur look. "Why don't you come inside...so we can talk?"
The boys are surprised by the Professor's answer. They were happy that they got the chance to talk.
"Thank you!" The boys said happily.
The girls were surprised that the Professor let them in their house. A few minutes later, he made tea for everyone, including the boys. They sat down and explained why they decide to be good.
"Here, have some tea." The Professor said.
"Thank you..." The boys said a little nervous.
"Okay, before we tell you why we decided to be good, we'll tell you how it started from the very beginning." Brick said as he sip his tea. "It all started a couple of months ago where we were still...you know."
"We were doing our usual routine when all of the sudden..." Butch said.
"There was a kid about our age getting bullied." Boomer said. "Usually we just fly pass that kinda thing...or cause that kinda thing..."
"But this time, it was different..." Brick said. "The bully had took a toy from the guy..."
"And we decided to fly down and scare the bully off." Butch said.
"After he saw us, he just ran off and dropped the kid's toy." Boomer said.
"Then the kid got his toy back, and you know what he said to us?" Brick said.
"What?" The girls said.
"'Thank you.'" Brick said. "'You guys are my heroes.' No one has ever thanked us before and to hear him say that made it felt like we were heroes or something."
"To be honest, it felt...good..." Boomer said. "It felt good to be thanked for something, even if it wasn't the thing we were made to do."
"After that, things started to change for us." Butch said. "The things we did just didn't felt right anymore. We didn't know who we were anymore."
"Hard to believe one act of kindness can change you completely..." Brick said.
"Hmm, I can see that." Blossom said.
"So, we decided that we couldn't stay in Townsville anymore, not until we could find ourselves." Brick said.
"Where did you guys go?" Blossom said.
"Just a town." Brick said. "The Town of Citiesville."
"The Town of Citiesville!?" The girls said shocked.
"That place is horrible!" Blossom said.
"We know." The boys said.
"All the people there are jerks." Buttercup said.
"We know." The boys said.
"And it smells really bad there." Bubbles said.
"WE KNOW!" The boys shouted.
"We didn't say we were going to a GOOD town." Brick said.
"Anyway, we went to Citiesville because it was the closest place to go." Butch said.
"We didn't know how BAD it was until we got there." Boomer said. "But we knew we couldn't stay in townsville the way we were."
"So, we had to make due with it." Butch said.
"Honestly, it wasn't as bad as you think." Brick said. "Besides everything about it, we made it our home for the time being."
"When we came there, we needed a place to stay, but we had no money." Butch said. "So, we had to stay in a old libraby."
"It...wasn't the cleanest place to stay at." Boomer said.
"It did had a few books that we read for things." Brick said.
"You read books?" The girls asked.
"Well, I do...these guys, not so much." Brick said pointing at his brothers.
"Hey!" Both Boomer and Butch shouted.
"So, what did you do for money?" Blossom asked.
"We had no money, so we had to get jobs." "Brick said.
"Jobs!?" Blossom said shocked.
"You guys try to get jobs!?" Buttercup said surprised.
"But you guys are still kids." Blossom pointed out. "How could you get jobs?"
"Wait, did you try to get a job once, Blossom?" Bubbles asked.
"Right, it was that Hot Dog place." Buttercup said.
"T-that's besides the point!" Blossom said a little embassessed.
"Hot Dog place?" The boys questioned.
"It was 'Hot Dog on a skew'." Blossom said.
"YOU worked at 'Hot Dog on a skew!?" The boys said shocked.
"It was only for a while!" Blossom said embrassed.
"Wait, did you wear one of the funny looking hats?" Brick chuckled.
"...The point is...I wanted to help out." Blossom said. "Uh, could you continue your story?"
"Oh, right...ummmm..." Brick muttered. "There was a burger joint that needed help so we went there."
"Being the town Citiesville was, it wasn't really popular." Boomer said. "Pretty sure the place wasn't the cleanest."
"The money was still okay, at least with the three of us working there." Butch said. "We all made a decent amount for a living.
"What work did you guys actually do?" Buttercup asked.
"Not to much, just dishwashing, garbage dumping, the usual things." Butch said.
"Also getting more people to eat there." Boomer said. "That was NOT easy."
"Afterwords, I got to do the more important stuff." Brick said. "
"What did you do, Brick?" Blossom asked.
"Well, after the hard work, I got promoted to be one of the burger cooks." Brick said.
"Oh, really?" Blossom questioned. "I wouldn't see you as much of a cook."
"What's that supposed to mean!?" Brick said upset. "I happen to be a great cook."
"Expect for that one time you almost burned the restaurant down." Butch said.
"Oh, yeah." Boomer said. "I totally remember that."
"Hey, it was a minor fire!" Brick said.
"Next time, try to use less of your fire breath." Butch said.
"You used your fire breath?" Blossom asked.
"Yeah, it gives it more of a...smokey flavor." Brick said. "Can't really get much from the stove."
"Oh, I see." Blossom said.
"You know, Blossom has Ice Breath." Bubbles said.
"Oh, yeah." Buttercup said. "She likes to use it to make snow cones. It gives it more of a smooth style."
"Huh, that's quite interesting." Butch said "Brick has Fire Breath and Blossom has Ice Breath.
"Wow, you guys are a regular Fire and Ice duo." Boomer said.
"A duo?" Both Brick and Blossom said.
Both Brick and Blossom quickly dismissed the thought.
"Can we get back to story please?" Brick said.
"Yeah, let's." Blossom said with a little red on her face.
"Anyway, I didn't really like how the place made their burgers, so I did my own thing." Brick said. "I added my own spices to give a little more flavor, and the people loved it."
"We actually started to have people come in." Butch said.
"Not only that, we even had a line." Boomer said.
"The place actually became quite popular thanks to us." Brick said.
"Brick makes the awesome burgers while he helped made them popular." Butch said.
"We even made the place got an A." Boomer said.
"Wow, sounds like you guys really lighten up the place." Buttercup said.
"Yep, you can say that." Butch said.
"Everything started to get better for us, but it wasn't always good." Boomer said.
"What do you mean?" Bubbles asked,
"Well, you already know that Citiesville isn't really a nice place to live." Brick said. "So there was a lot of crime happening there."
"And without anyone really crime, that lead to what we should do." Butch said.
"As first, we didn't know what to do." Boomer said. "We never really fought crime before. Just caused it."
"Then we started to think about that time." Brick said.
"You mean, the kid who was being bullied?" Blossom asked.
"That's right." Brick said. "That kid thought that we were heroes, and it felt good. I guess we wanted to have that feeling again."
"So, we started to fight crime in Citiesville." Butch said.
"At first, not a lot of people appreciate what we did, but eventually they started to." Boomer said.
"And before we knew it, we became Citiesville's heroes." Brick said. "Citiesville actually became a decent place to live at."
"And the people were less jerks." Butch said.
"And it started to smell not so bad." Boomer said.
"Wow." The girls said surprised.
"Sounds like you guys did a work to make that place seem...livable." Blossom said.
"Hehe, yeah." Brick said in agreement. "It was then we realize that we didn't want to be bad anyone. It's felt good to help people when they were in need."
"It felt good having people appreciate us." Boomer said.
"And it's a lot more fun fighting bad guys!" Butch said with a smile on his face.
"I could have told you that." Buttercup said.
"Eventually, Citiesville was pretty safe, and for the first time to us, it felt like home." Brick said.
"But, it wasn't our home." Boomer said. "We realized that we still had a lot to do. A lot to make up for."
"And that it was finally time for us to go back to Townsville." Butch said. "We knew that Citiesville would be safe now, but Townsville would always be in trouble."
"One's of the reasons why we came back was to make up for all the things we did in the past." Brick said. "We only just came back a few weeks ago."
"Oh, right." Blossom said. "And you said that it was you guys that helped slow down the crime rate here."
"Yep." Brick said. "It was minor crimes, but we still had to stop them."
"We were always on lookout to make sure no trouble was happening." Boomer said.
"And the second they did, we took care of them." Butch said. "We were fast, so we wouldn't draw too much attention."
"No doubt some of the people in the city would think we were still bad." Brick said. "Of course with the monster attack that happened today, having a low profile gets throwed out the window."
"That's when we came to help you girls." Boomer said.
"And you definitely needed our help." Butch said.
"True be told, we wanted to show you girls personally how much we change." Brick said.
"But the only way to do that was by actually showing showing you." Boomer said.
"Which, again wasn't easy." Butch said.
"Which lend to the second reason why we came back to Townsville." Brick said.
"Second reason?" The girls questioned.
"What was it?" Blossom asked.
The boys got a little embarrassed to tell the other reason.
"Well..." Brick said shyly. "We...wanted to see you girls again..."
The girls were surprised to hear that, and started to blush a bit.
"R...really...?" Blossom said nervously.
"Uh...not like that..." Brick said nervously. "What I meant was... we wanted to apologize about all the thrashing we gave you girls."
"Yeah, it was so not cool." Butch said.
"We're different people now, and we want a chance to make up to you." Boomer said. "We want to help you fight crime."
"You guys want to help us fight crime?" Bubbles said.
"More than that." Brick said. "We have a third reason being here."
"A third reason?" The girls said.
"We need your help." Brick said. "You see, me and my bros want to do more than fight crime. We want to stop crime completely."
"Stop crime completely!?" The girls said shocked.
"Being from the other side, we know how it is." Brick said. "Sometimes people only choose to be bad because it's all they can do."
"When we were created, we were made to do bad , but we never got the know what the world was really like." Boomer said. "And after seeing it ourselves, it gave us a reason to change."
"We now know that everyone should get a second chance." Butch said. "And we decided to make the right choice."
"And we want others to make the right choice too." Brick said. "We want them to have a second chance so that maybe, just maybe, they won't end up like other criminals, but we can't do it with just the three of us. We need you girls to help us."
"You three are always fighting crime, and doing your best to keep the city safe." Boomer said. "And everyone loves you for it, but it's not enough just fighting crime."
"Even now, people are going to keep doing crimes because they don't know that they have a choice." Butch said. "While it can be fun fighting thugs, it could be bad if it was people who were once good."
The girls were silent for a bit. They started to think was the work they did for Townsville enough. The boys had made a good point about what they were talking about.
"I know this is a big request, but with the six of us, I think...no...I KNOW we can do it." Brick said. "Me and the guys,...we want to be heroes like you.
"Right now, bringing peace to Townsville is something we all want to do." Boomer said.
"Plus, it'd be pretty fun fighting crime with the six of us." Butch said. "Things would be a lot easier too. You can definitely use our help."
"I know that this is a lot to ask after everything that we did to you, and we don't expect you girls to trust us right out of the bat, but this is something we really need to do." Brick said.
"Huddle." Blossom said to the girls.
The girls huddled to talk about the boys.
"Can we really trust these guys?" Buttercup said. "Even if their story is true, how do we know they won't turn on us?"
"I think they might be telling the truth." Bubbles said. "They haven't caused any trouble for quite some time."
"And they do make a good point." Blossom said. "With the six of us, fighting crime would be a breeze."
"But, you do really think we could end crime for good?" Buttercup said.
"That does sound like a tall order." Bubbles said.
"You're right, but we might be able to do it with their help." Blossom said.
"That's what we thought too." Brick said.
"Wait, you guys hear everything?" Blossom said.
"Super sonic hearing." The boys said.
"Works pretty well, when you're still an earshot away." Brick said.
"Oh." The girls said.
"Listen, we're not asking you to trust us now, but you can at least give us a chance." Brick said. "Let us fight crime with you..., please."
The boys lend her hands to the girls, hoping that they would reach to them. The were silent for a moment and thought about everything they said. They still had trouble trusting the boys, but somehow, they felt that they could trust them after what they said. The girls then reach their hand to the boys and gave them a smile.
"If you really think we can work together, then I guess we should at least try." Blossom said.
"Yeah, cause we could always use extra help." Bubbbles said.
"And it might as well be you guys." Buttercup said.
"Thank you!" The boys said happily.
"We promise that we won't let you girls down!" Brick said happily.
"We'll defend Townsville like you girls did." Boomer said.
"And we're do it together." Butch said.
Everyone smiled knowing that they could work together, and the professor was tearing up a bit.
"Professor...are you crying?" Blossom asked.
"What...no...I was just thinking how proud I am of you girls." The Professor said. "You've even got these boys to see the light."
"Hehehe, if you say so." Brick said. "Anyway, now that's we've got all that bad blood out of the way, how about we reintroduce ourselves just to have a fresh start? I'm Brick."
"I'm Boomer." Boomer said.
"And I'm Butch." Butch said.
"Blossom." Blossom said.
"Bubbles." Bubbles said.
"Buttercup." Buttercup said.
The kids then all shook hands and we're happy to be a team.
"Well, I guess we've explained everything." Brick said.
"Yeah, we should probably be going now." Butch said.
"Where will you guys go?" Buttercup said.
"Somewhere." Boomer said. "We don't have a home since we can't go back to you-know-who."
"Hey, why don't you stay with us for a bit?" Bubbles said.
"What!?" The boys said surprised.
"Yeah, you guys did help us with that monster today." Bubbles said.
"It's the least we can do." Blossom said.
"Is that really okay?" Brick asked.
"If you guys are really good now, it's only right we return to the favor." Buttercup said.
"Professor, it's okay if they can stay for a while, right?" Blossom asked.
"Uh, well..." The professor said nervously.
The girls gave the Professor the cute eyes trick. They knew that the Professor could never handle it. And with the boys doing it as well, he just couldn't say no.
"Oh, all right." The Professor said. "They can stay for a while."
"Thanks, Professor!" The boys said happily.
"Guess I'm making dinner for 7 tonight." The Professor said.
The Professor went to the kitchen to get started on dinner.
"Hey, thanks for letting us stay with you guys." Brick said. "It...means a lot."
"Well, someone's got to keep an eye on you guys." Blossom said. "Can't have you guys causing trouble again."
"Hehe, right." Brick said. "So, do you girls mind that we ask you a question?"
"Sure, what is it?" Blossom asked.
"Did you girls...missed us?" Brick asked.
Once the girls heard that question, they were kinda shocked and surprised that they would ask that.
"M-m-m-miss you!?" The girls shouted.
"Oh, come on now." Boomer said. "You can't expect us to believe you didn't think about us a few times."
"Yeah." Butch said. "It's not like you girls have actually BEEN with other guys."
"And let's not forget the whole you-know-what you girls did the first time we met." Brick said.
"Not to mention what happened to US after the -you-know-what." Butch said.
"Oh, right..." Blossom said slowly. "Sorry about that."
"Water over a bridge." Brick said. "A big, big, BIG bridge."
"But, admit it." Butch said. "You girls liked it."
"Uh, well..." Blossom said nervously.
"You don't need to answer that." Brick said. "Just say that you missed us."
"Oh, come on." Buttercup said. "Why would we miss you? Just a few hours ago, we thought you guys were jerks, until you helped."
"You missed us..." The boys said with a smirk.
The girls then give a shur look and didn't say anything.
"Well, truth be told, we kinda missed you girls." Butch said.
The girls then blushed a bit after hearing that.
"Yeah, it's actually great to see you girls, again." Boomer said. "And we don't have to brawl it out for once."
"Hehe, that's true." Bubbles said.
The kids all laughed and while they were, the Professor was done with dinner. He gave the kids a few steaks and some broccoli. The boys looked at it like it was an alien.
"Uh, what is this, green stuff?" Brick said.
"It's broccoli." The Professor said. "It's very good for you."
"Sure doesn't look like it." Butch said.
"Yeah." Boomer said. "Nothing that green should be good."
Both Butch and Buttercup gave Boomer a look.
"Oh, sorry." Boomer said nervously.
"Just close your eyes, and it'll all be over." Buttercup said.
"Come on." Blossom said. "You guys aren't scared of broccoli, are you?"
"Oh, the mighty Rowdyruff Boys scared of Broccoli..." Buttercup said laughing.
The girls laughed at the boys for not eating their Broccoli. Brick started to be a little ticked off.
"Hey, I ain't afraid of nothing." Brick said. "I can handle this green stuff."
Brick grabbed his fork and picked up the broccoli. He was a little nervous but he didn't want to be known as a wimp to the girls. He took a deep breath and gobble it all in one bite. The taste to him was beyond bitter. He had a sour face the entire time, but he was relieve when it was finally over.
"S-s-s-see?" Brick said with a nauseous face. "I can handle it. Your turn, boys..."
"Uh, no problem." Boomer said nervously.
"Yeah..., this'll be easy..." Butch said nervously.
Both Boomer and Butch saw how Brick looked when he after eating the broccoli, but they didn't want to be showed off by their brother, so they ate some as well. They had the same expression that Brick had.
"Uh, that was horrible..." Butch said.
"That was the worst thing I ever tasted..." Boomer said. "Although, I do feel a little more enerized."
"See, that's the power of broccoli." The Professor said.
"If only it tasted better..." Brick said.
"Yeah..." Both Boomer and Butch said.
After dinner the kids spend some more time in the living room.
"So besides fighting crime, what have you guys been doing since you got back?" Buttercup asked.
"Well, he have worked on a few new moves, but they're still in testing." Butch said.
"Yeah, and trust me, actually putting them off won't be easy." Brick said.
"I know what you mean." Blossom said. "Sometimes we end up using moves before we even test it yet."
"Oh, yeah." Bubbles said. "We sure did that alot. Remember Plan XQ"
"Plan XQ?" The boys said. "What's that?"
"Something that's still on testing." Blossom said.
"Yeah, not something we've really used often." Buttercup said.
"Well, with all the powers that we all have, some of them are gonna be either hard to use, or hardly used." Butch said.
"We've have gotten pretty strong since we last meant." Boomer said.
"We've gotten stronger too." Bubbles said.
"Yeah, as a matter of fact, how about we have a rematch with you guys?" Buttercup said.
"Uh, no offense, but we're trying be good now." Butch said. "Fighting you girls now would kinda be uncool."
"Besides, you don't want to fight us the way we are now." Brick said.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Blossom said.
"You girls never really beat us in actual fight." Brick said. "And with the strength we have now, it still might not be good for you."
"That, and we're not trying to mess up anything right now." Boomer said.
"However..." Brick said after looking at the girls video games. "...there is another way we could settle things."
"Hmm, I see where you're going." Blossom said with a smile.
A few hours later, the kids were playing video games for a while. It seems that the boys were a lot better than the girls at fighting games. Brick had beaten Blossom 7 times in a row.
"Looks like I win again, Bloss!" Brick said.
"Ugh, no fair!" Blossom said upset. "How are you so good at this!?"
"Well, I'm a guy." Brick said. "It comes naturally. That and I got the high score at the arcade."
"Don't feel bad, Blossom." Butch said.
"Yeah." Boomer said. "Brick's just better than you in this."
"Grrrr..." Blossom growled.
"Hey, want me to show you some tricks?" Brick asked.
"...Fine..." Blossom said unamused.
"Try not to block to much." Brick said. "If you guard to often, you'll just be a sitting duck. Don't be afraid to take a few damage to make a few damage."
"Oh, so that's why you always just go for the attack." Blossom said.
"Yep." Brick said. "The best offense is sometimes the best defense."
"Got it!" Blossom said. "How about we go again?"
The professor came in the living room.
"Okay, kids. The Professor said. "It's time for bed."
"Awww..." The girls said.
"Just when I was to get it." Blossom said.
"Some other time then." Brick said.
"So, where do we sleep?" Butch said.
"How the the couch?" Buttercup said.
"The couch!?" The boys said.
"Well, at least it's soft." Boomer said.
Blossom gives the boys some blankets.
"Here, you can use these blankets." Blossom said.
"Thanks." Brick said.
"I guess we should we should get to bed." Blossom said. "Goodnight you guys."
"Night." Brick said. "And girls...?"
The girls stopped to look at the boys.
"...Thanks..." The boys said.
The girls were a bit surprised, but they felt happy too.
"You're welcome." The girls said.
The girls then went to their room.
"You know, I think the boys really have changed." Bubbles said.
"I think you may be right, Bubbles." Buttercup said. "They didn't even want to fight us, which is surprising."
"Well, if they really have change, then we can really use their help." Blossom said. "Don't want to get overworked again."
"Yeah, and about what they said." Buttercup said. "They want to end all crime. Will that even be possible?"
"I'm not really sure, but I know that with the guys help, it may be possible." Blossom said.
"Yeah, and besides, you got to admit." Bubbles said. "The boys are kinda cute."
"Bubbles, you're so weird." Buttercup said.
'Come on, we're all thinking it too." Bubbles said.
"...Yeah..." Both Blossom and Buttercup admitted.
Later with the Boys...
"Man, can you believe the girls are letting us stay here?" Butch said.
"I know, even after everything we did to them." Boomer said.
"Well, we own them." Brick said. "Right now, we need to join together with we want to achieve our new goal."
"Do you really think we can put it off?" Butch said.
"Only time will tell." Brick said. "In the meantime, let's get some rest. Tomorrow we're gonna do some training with the girls."
"Right." Boomer said. "Well, goodnight, guys."
"Goodnight, bros." Brick said.
"Night." Butch said.
The boys then slept in the couch getting rest, for tomorrow, they will learn how to cooperate with the girls.
